Geez nice house 😮 living the dream my friend.. agree with the others, full tackle and tackle room tour 👏🏽 great walk around, nice to see what you guys are fishing out of.
@@willandmaryoutdoors8645 Oh wow. Stay safe. I hope you can get some time in for sure. Where are you guys located? We are down in Southwest Florida. Our area is still recovering from Hurricane Ian. We have to cautious with hurricane debris still hidden in the waterways.
@@honestabe7349 Good morning. Yes, I’ve stayed mostly inshore since I’ve gotten it. Haven’t done any off shore fishing yet. We have pretty much stayed off the coast of Sanibel and Captiva for day trips. She’s a great boat!
Having a cold 1 and watching this ... that's a cool invention and I believe a lot of macks gts trout reds and gummy lipped pricks are in store as time goes by. Plis do make a video of yr tackle showroom ,, rods reels lures etc... love yr videos ...
Looking at a couple of 2022 models on Thursday. Should I be concerned with the 18 degree deadrise re: ride quality? I noticed the 2023 models have a 20 degree deadrise.@@willandmaryoutdoors8645
I live on the water here in Port Charlotte fl. I am 30 min from Boca Grand pass. I am highly interested in this boat but am disappointed it is not set up more for fishing. They need the 226 or 246 Cayman layout with 2 livewells and 1 in the front. I will have to put a 30 gal livewell under the leaning post and omit the cooler. There goes another 2-3 grand for that.
@@willandmaryoutdoors8645 It is actually on my short list now. The boat is slightly different then your now. What year do you have? The console is much different on the new ones for the t-top is molded with the console and very rigid and it has full glass on sides and front which I wanted. I like how it gives you about 4 more valuable inches on each side of the console and no worries about stubbing a toe on a post. Love everything about this boat minus the livewells which I have figured out now.
@@willandmaryoutdoors8645 When you put your trolling motor on, did it block your front cleat from being able to use it? It looks slightly to forward and right over that cleat?
you need to get a bow stop on that trailer, i have the same boat and my windlass anchor got caught on the roller when i was putting it in the water. Not a good situation when it happens. it is an easy fix.
That is a beautiful boat. Congratulations & thank you for the video on it. I am going to have to look into Sportsman boats. I like their layout
Awesome you are welcome ! We can’t fault our boat yet ..

We're retiring to FL in a few years, and this boat is on the short list to look at in person. Fits our new boat budget. Great review.
Ah cheers for the feedback & glad you got some info out of the vid 🎣
Awesome content keep it coming guys.
Sweet azz !! Thank you 🙏🏽
Love my 232 thanks for the video!
Epic cheers 👍🏽
That laugh of Will’s is contagious 😂.
Haha I watch myself & then laugh at myself 😂🎣
Beauty of a rig team!
Thank you team 🤙🏽 this year is going to be a big one for us 🎣🙌🏾

Awesome, crack a cold one for us also !! Just out at work atm .. home soon 🙌🏾👌🏽
Just got me a 2021 232 and I love it!
Awesome tour of the boat thanks!!! I'm looking at a 23 also for purchase .
You won’t regret it !!
nice boat!
Yes thats a BEAST!! Please keep posting your trips 🙏🏼 also can you show us your tackle?
Currently working on the tackle setup, hopefully not to much longer
* A new friend came to say hello with a complete package with 👍🔔 a new color and a glass of warm coffee for my best friend 🥳🥳🥳*
Awesome my friend 🙏🏽 🎣 … much more to come over this year
Finallyy so nice 🎉
Perfect ! More to come 🔜
It always amazes me how other countries use much smaller trucks to tow boats. In the states, it's mainly full size or even three/quarter ton trucks.
Would love to run trucks like the states but unfortunately you pay big bucks here for them and the roads aren’t catered for them.
Maybe because our ramps are so steep
I want one now.
Haha . I could see that coming 😂👍🏽
Congratulations on a great rig. Did it come with an Ameritailer and if so why did you change the trailer?
Cheers for that ! We had the hull shipped over from USA and got a custom spitfire trailer made with a swing away draw bar for shed storage

It’s got everything we need and more, has a livewell but to be honest we don’t use it. Very safe on the water and plenty of space to fish 👌🏽

Absolute weapon. Enjoy and good luck with your adventures. Is the swing-away drawbar, aluminium tubing or steel/galvanised tubing?
Love it !! Yep Swing away is Galvanised Steel

Oh true ! We will definitely have a look at that thank you 🙏🏽
Sorry Will, Mary outstrips your presenting abilities 10-1.
Great looking boat.
Agreed 🤙🏽
Ha ha your a joker mate! This guys a king 👑
Love your Sporty, I have the 234T. Are your gull wings factory or custom?
Hey Frank, we ordered them as an option with the boat from sportsman 👌🏽 will definitely be putting them up in winter
@@willandmaryoutdoors8645 thanks guys. My other boat is a 485 sf too!
No ways !! Same hull, they are awesome ride for their size hey !!
what do you guys do for a living?
How well does your Ranger respond to towing the 232 Open?
Very easy 👌🏽
What kind of boat is your other one in the garage beside you new boat?
Hey Lesley, it’s a Haines Sea change 👌🏽 great little rig
